[Intro] [Verse 1] She came in wearing midnight Silver resting at her throat Didn't ask the room to notice Still the whole damn room went still She caught me by the amplifier Said, "You're quieter up close" I said, "Noise is for the speakers" She smiled, "Damn, I like that most" [Short Guitar Answer] Her perfume crossed the distance My pulse fell behind the beat She said, "You always this calm?" I said, "Come a little closer." [Chorus] Steady hands Dirty grin Let the trouble walk right in No rush Low lights Got every nerve awake tonight Pull me close Make it last No need to burn it up too fast Heat in the blood Hell in the amps Still got steady hands Still got steady hands [Post-Chorus] [Verse 2] Her fingers catch my jacket While the kick cracks through the floor Bass rolls underneath us Then the second guitar starts to roar She ain't asking for forever I ain't selling some damn line We can let tonight be honest Without naming it for life She leans in by my ear Says, "Show me what you got" I grin and leave the microphone Baby— Listen to the band. [Chorus] Steady hands Dirty grin Let the trouble walk right in No rush Low lights Got every nerve awake tonight Pull me close Make it last No need to burn it up too fast Heat in the blood Hell in the amps Still got steady hands [Bridge] Used to burn through every moment Like the night owed me a thing Now I let the tension hang there Till the damn guitar can sing She says, "You gonna keep me waiting?" I say, "Depends what waiting means."
